Possible to have the Document/Transparent Background enabled by default


Recommended Posts

I, more and more, frequently am using PNG files with transparent backgrounds.    If I want a transparent

background then I tick accordingly.  However, is it possible to change this to be my default?

In my experience, if I tick "transparent background" when I create a document, and then I create another document, the transparency setting carries over. I have to explicitly turn it off again when I no longer want a document with transparency.

That's great news, Walt!  Just after I posted, I had the thought that I should experiment and find out if that was the case.  I am presuming that it carries over even to the next time you reboot your desktop.
